BACKGROUND

Field of Invention

The present invention relates to an inductor structure and a manufacturing method thereof.

Description of Related Art

A conventional inductor structure may include a silicon substrate and plural copper bumps. The silicon substrate has plural bond pads. The copper bumps are respectively formed on the bond pads by electrolytic deposition, and have high frequency transmission performance. In subsequent process to the formation of the bumps, a ball grid array (BGA) or conductive protruding blocks may be electrically connected to the bond pads of the silicon substrate by the copper bumps. In that tin material and lead material cannot be directly adhered to the copper bumps, after the copper bumps are completely formed by electrolytic deposition, a nickel layer and a gold layer need to be formed in sequence by electrolytic deposition. The nickel layer has high impedance property to prevent the gold layer and the copper bump from fusing in high temperature ambience, while the gold layer can prevent the copper bump from oxidation.

The BGA or the conductive protruding blocks can be adhered to the copper bumps through the nickel layers and the gold layers, but, in fact, only the small number of the copper bumps in the inductor structure need to be electrically connected to the conductive protruding blocks or the BGA during the subsequent process, such as a bumping process or a BGA process, and most of the copper bumps do not need to be electrically connected to the BGA or the conductive protruding blocks. However, in general, when the inductor structure is manufactured, all of the copper bumps are formed with the nickel layers and the gold layers by electrolytic deposition due to limited process capability.

In this regard, the materials (e.g., gold) are wasted, and the unnecessary nickel layers and the gold layers formed on all of the copper bumps by electrolytic deposition increase the total resistance of the lines of the inductor structure and reduce the efficiency of the inductor structure. As such, the inductance of the inductor structure is difficultly improved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Reference will now be made in detail to the present embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers are used in the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts.

FIG. 1 is a top view of an inductor structure 100 according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the inductor structure 100 taken along line 2-2 shown in FIG. 1. In order to simplify the following description, a line layer 210 shown in FIG. 1 will not be shown in other drawings. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the inductor structure 100 includes a substrate 110, a protection layer 120, a patterned conductive layer 130, a plurality of copper bumps 140, a diffusion barrier layer 150, and an oxidation barrier layer 160. The substrate 110 has a plurality of bond pads 112. The protection layer 120 is located on the substrate 110 and the bond pads 112. The protection layer 120 includes a plurality of protection layer openings 122, and the bond pads 112 are respectively exposed through the protection layer openings 122. The conductive layer 130 is located on the surfaces of the bond pads 112 facing the protection layer openings 122, and on the surface of the protection layer 120 adjacent to the protection layer openings 122. The copper bumps 140 are located on the conductive layer 130. The diffusion barrier layer 150 is located on at least one of the copper bumps 140, such that the copper bump 140 covered by the diffusion barrier layer 150 is between the diffusion barrier layer 150 and the conductive layer 130. The oxidation barrier layer 160 is located on the surface of the diffusion barrier layer 150 facing away from the copper bump 140. The diffusion barrier layer 150 and the oxidation barrier layer 160 may be formed on the copper bump 140 by electrolytic deposition.

In this embodiment, the substrate 110 may be made of a material including silicon. The protection layer 120 may be made of a material including polymer, oxide (e.g., SiO₂), or nitride. The bond pad 112 may be made of a material including aluminum. The conductive layer 130 may be made of a material including titanium and copper. The diffusion barrier layer 150 may be made of a material including nickel, such that the diffusion barrier layer 150 has high impedance property to prevent the oxidation barrier layer 160 and the copper bump 140 from fusing in high temperature ambience. The oxidation barrier layer 160 may made of a material including gold, such that the oxidation barrier layer 160 can prevent the copper bump 140 from oxidation. However, the present invention is not limited to the aforementioned materials.

Moreover, the inductor structure 100 further includes a nonmetal passivation layer 170. The nonmetal passivation layer 170 is located on the protection layer 120, the copper bumps 140, the diffusion barrier layer 150, and the oxidation barrier layer 160. The nonmetal passivation layer 170 has a nonmetal passivation layer opening 172, such that the oxidation barrier layer 160 can be exposed through the nonmetal passivation layer opening 172. The nonmetal passivation layer 170 may prevent moisture and dust from entering the inductor structure 100. Therefore, the nonmetal passivation layer 170 prevents the copper bumps 140 and the diffusion barrier layer 150 from oxidation. In this embodiment, the nonmetal passivation layer 170 may be made of a material including polymer, oxide (e.g., SiO₂) or nitride, but the present invention is not limited in this regard.

During subsequent process for the inductor structure 100, such as a bumping process or a BGA process, a conductive protruding block or a BGA may be adhered to the oxidation barrier layer 160, such that the conductive protruding block or the BGA may be electrically connected to the conductive layer 130 and the bond pad 112 by the copper bump 140 with the diffusion barrier layer 150 and the oxidation barrier layer 160 (e.g., the left copper bump 140 shown in FIG. 2). Another copper bump 140 without the diffusion barrier layer 150 and the oxidation barrier layer 160 (e.g., the right copper bump 140 shown in FIG. 2) is covered by the nonmetal passivation layer 170, and the right copper bump 140 is not adhered to the conductive protruding block or the BGA in the subsequent process. As a result, the inductor structure 100 can save the material costs of the diffusion barrier layer 150 and the oxidation barrier layer 160, and the total resistance of the lines of the inductor structure 100 can be reduced, such that the efficiency of the inductor structure 100 is improved. Therefore, the inductance of the inductor structure 100 can also be improved.

The inductor structure 100 a includes the substrate 110, the protection layer 120, the copper bumps 140, the patterned conductive layer 130, the diffusion barrier layer 150, and the oxidation barrier layer 160. The difference between this embodiment and the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 is that the inductor structure 100 a does not include the nonmetal passivation layer 170 (see FIG. 2), but includes a metal division layer 180. The metal division layer 180 covers the surfaces of the copper bump 140, the diffusion barrier layer 150, and the oxidation barrier layer 160. The metal division layer 180 may be made of a material including gold, and the metal division layer 180 may be formed on the copper bump 140 by chemical plating. The metal division layer 180 can prevent the copper bump 140 and the diffusion barrier layer 150 from oxidation.

Thereafter in step S2, a protection layer having a plurality of protection layer openings is formed on the substrate and the bond pads, such that the bond pads are respectively exposed through the protection layer openings. Next in step S3, a conductive layer is formed on the bond pads and the protection layer. Thereafter in step S4, a patterned first photoresist layer is formed on the conductive layer, such that the conductive layer adjacent to the protection layer openings is exposed through a plurality of first photoresist layer openings of the first photoresist layer. Next in step S5, a plurality of copper bumps are formed on the conductive layer that is in the first photoresist layer openings. Thereafter in step S6, a patterned second photoresist layer is formed on the first photoresist layer. A second photoresist layer opening of the second photoresist layer is aligned with at least one of the copper bumps, such that at least one of the copper bumps is exposed through the second photoresist layer opening and the corresponding first photoresist layer opening. Next in step S7, a diffusion barrier layer and an oxidation barrier layer are formed in sequence on the copper bump that is exposed through the second photoresist layer opening. Finally in step S8, the first and second photoresist layers, and the conductive layer that is not covered by the copper bumps are removed.
